Reverse redistribution (RR) is the apparent worsening of a stress-induced defect or the appearance of a new defect in the myocardium in the delayed thallium images. This has been linked to the presence of coronary artery disease. In this article, we examine the incidence of this phenomenon in our local population, and its pathophysiological significance.

D001775 Blood Circulation The movement of the BLOOD as it is pumped through the CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM. Blood Flow,Circulation, Blood,Blood Flows,Flow, Blood
D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.
